Market commentary
The Spyker C8 is less a car than an art form. Distinguished by intricate details like polished aluminum vents, an aircraft-style dashboard and the most imaginative shift linkage ever put in a car’s cockpit, the C8 is a festival of visual and mechanical delights and backed up by exceptional performance from its mid-mounted 4.2 litre Audi V-8 and 6-speed gearbox. Each Spyker belongs in an art gallery, but functions like a real car. It is an individual statement of taste and style and it is impossible to quibble with the bidders’ determination that it is a marvelous creation even if it is expensive. A Calder mobile only hangs on a wall or ceiling, a Spyker can be driven.
